Archaeologist and adventurer, Indiana Jones, returns to the big screen June 30 and wears a watch for the first time ever.
The dream team of George Lucas, Harrison Ford and Steven Spielberg brought us the iconic Indiana Jones franchises in the 1980s. In just about a week, on June 30, Ford is back on the big screen as the legendary hero archeologist Indiana Jones for his fifth and final film. We can barely wait to see what new adventures await Indy in Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny.
While we don't know everything that will happen in the latest action film, we do know that Indy is still sporting his same relaxed, yet stylish, outfits with his leather jacket and fedora — but there's one new addition: a wristwatch. In the previous films, Indy has never worn a watch, but the costume designer, Joanna Johnston of Jurassic World: Dominion, Cast Away, The Sixth Sense and more, nailed his signature style with a timeless Hamilton Boulton wristwatch.
Hamilton American Classic Boulton Quartz
The classic style of Hamilton's Boulton watches were first released in 1941. A leather strap, steel case and Swiss-precision create a gorgeous piece that won't go out of style.
First introduced in 1941, the Boulton was one of Hamilton’s most popular watches from the decade. It was reintroduced in the 1980s and adapted for modern life, but maintained its Art Deco look and captures the essence of Ford's character well.
With a yellow gold PVD coated stainless steel case, quartz movement, and a brown leather strap with alligator finish, the Boulton Quartz merges long-standing Hamilton heritage and cutting-edge Swiss watchmaking precision — perfect for escaping dangers just in the nick of time.
In business for more than 130 years, Hamilton first came onto to the scene making pocket watches that improved railroad accuracy. The innovative brand is no stranger to Hollywood, with timepieces appearing in over 500 movies and television shows, including Interstellar and Men in Black. You can even shop all these famous watches to build out your timepiece collection.
Johnston worked with Vivian Stauffer, Hamilton’s CEO on choosing the perfect watch for Indy. Stauffer explained their final decision to Esquire, "The choice of the Boulton for the character is based on the era — but not only that,” she said. “It also reflects Indiana Jones’ personality as archaeologist, and it captures both his inquisitive mind and thirst for noble pursuits.”
Hamilton offers a two-year warranty because they believe in their watches. They also deliver watches in 48 to 72 hours, meaning that if you order the American Classic Boulton Quartz watch right now, you could be wearing it during the premiere of Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny next week.
Ahead of Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny hitting theaters, check out the official trailer below. After Jones is betrayed by his goddaughter — played by Phoebe Waller-Bridge — Jones sets out on a quest to finish the one mission he has had his sights on during his entire career: retrieving the dial of destiny.

Joining the cast for the final round is Antonio Banderas, John Rhys-Davies, Shaunette Renée Wilson, Thomas Kretschmann, Toby Jones, Boyd Holbrook, Olivier Richters and Ethann Isidore.
